Kwesi Appiah bemoans profligacy in Black Stars defeat

Published on: 10 June 2019

Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has lamented his side’s poor finishing in their 1-0 defeat to Namibia in the pre-AFCON friendly on Sunday.

Despite creating several chances, the Black Stars simply struggled to find the back of the net.

Thomas Partey failed to score with a header from point blank range while Mubarak Wakaso missed a penalty to salvage a draw.

Manfred Starke first half goal was enough to separate the sides at the Jaber Ali training facility in Dubai.

“Namibia had one chance and scored, unfortunately we created many chances but failed to score but we are looking at the essence of the game” Kwesi Appiah bemoaned in his post match interview.

“We looking at the shape of the team so we can see where they are lapses and loopholes that can be corrected before we go to Egypt.”

Ghana will face South Africa in their final warm up game on June 14 before the team departs to Egypt for the tournament.
